Econazole/triamcinolone is a combination drug, consisting of econazole (an imidazole antifungal) and triamcinolone (a group III topical steroid).

It is used as a topical cream against fungal skin infections, including Trichophyton mentagrophytes, T. rubrum, Epidermophyton floccosum and Candida albicans.[1] In Bangladesh, the combination of triamcinolone acetonide and econazole nitrate is branded as Pevisone by Janssen Pharmaceutica.
